This traces how each of the research themes was related to broader disciplinary themes.
We summarize traditional and recent approaches, identify the main disciplinary themes, and discuss their strengths and weaknesses.
We define waterborne and water-associated vectorborne diseases and identify disciplinary themes and conceptual needs by drawing from ecologic, anthropologic, engineering, political/economic, and public health fields.
Toward that end, he developed a long-range strategic plan that emphasizes four cross-disciplinary themes: Unlocking the Mysteries of the Universe, Understanding and Sustaining a Biodiverse Planet, Valuing World Cultures, and Understanding the American Experience, then raised $10 million as seed money to fund pilot interdisciplinary activities. .
A strong geographical gradient in publication rates, highest in the Scandinavian countries and UK and lowest in the southern and Eastern Europe, was found for all public health publications and within six sub-disciplinary themes [ 2].
The multi-disciplinary theme was continued by John Schuetz and Kenny Linton [ 39] who described work characterizing ABC transporters in liver disease.
Three approaches surfaced among the teachers in making multi-disciplinary connections: (1) connecting themes and content across courses, (2) identifying multi-disciplinary "big ideas" that could support integration, and (3) developing projects and working backwards to fit in disciplinary content.
The analysis revealed that while all case problems were authentic and multi-disciplinary, they varied across six themes for the pedagogical models examined: problem complexity, nature of problem topic, problem task, problem product, problem solving activity, and type of effort.
In the Birmingham project mentioned earlier we focused on 'best available evidence' in each of the broad themes and sought multi disciplinary approaches.
This was the largest volume of work of any of the themes and reflected a disciplinary range across Sociology, Geography, Management studies, Education, Economics and Social Policy.
The corresponding analysis identifies common themes across the multi-disciplinary literature as well as several gaps in research about education's role in DRR highlighting the complexity of DRR research, which reflects the multiplicity of purposes, audiences, and social and political perspectives they represent.
